Perform is a unique children’s drama school that has a special emphasis on child development. Perform uses a mix of drama, dance and singing to bring out every child’s full potential. Run by highly experienced actor-teachers, in small groups, Perform classes focus on developing the 4 Cs: Confidence, Communication, Coordination, and Concentration.

The curriculum ensures plenty of fun, using a mix of energetic games, catchy songs and funky dances. Each term sees a brand new theme to keep imaginations buzzing. All class materials are written by Perform, with apps, CDs and videos that the children can play at home to keep the magic alive.

Our kids are more sophisticated than were before! It’s not easy to find fun and exciting party or event activities they love doing! Are you looking for more unusual fun, exiting and different kinds of arts and entertainment activities for your kid’s party? If you are, you have come to the right place! Nugent Education specialise in providing party and entertainment activities children (from the ages of just 4 – 18 years) really enjoy.

They offer kids party activities in Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, London, and Derby and across England and North Wales. Artists travel to your home, centre or venue to deliver these fun and popular party or event activities.

Their artists can make your party go fantastically well with activities that children enjoy for an hour or two. This will remove the stress off you in terms of engaging the children for an hour or two!

For small children we offer activities like crafts puppet making, face painting, mask making, lantern making and dance. We also offer mascots you can take pictures with such as iggle piggle from in the night garden and the minions. Children’s faces beam with excitement as they see these popular characters walk in. Other children’s activities include Japanese origami and African drumming (great fun).

For older children and teenagers urban arts are very popular. This can include DJ skills, graffiti art, break dancing, rapping or MC-ing and human beat boxing and street dance. Nugent Education can also provide makeup and beauty and free running.

Nugent Education can offer graffiti art activities like graffiti art on a baseball cap. As well as this, we can provide graffiti or painted murals for children’s bedrooms or play areas or spray something the child gets to keep whilst at the party or event. Kids love it. This is really popular as they get to keep a cap or be left with a permanent reminder of the day with a mural.

Their DBS checked artists and entertainers will travel to your home or venue (booked room etc) to deliver these activities.

These fun activities are great value for money and usually last 1, 1½ or 2hrs. They are competitively priced from only £85.00 plus travel (variable), so why not give Nugent Education a try??

Jigsaw was established in 1995 by two actresses with a passion for passing on their love of everything performing arts. The belief in the benefits of performing arts activities for children was the driving force in the creation of Jigsaw and the reason why Jigsaw has continued to grow and become a well established and high quality provider of children’s classes.

Every student can benefit, in some way, from the performing arts. While some join us to build a firm foundation for a professional performance career, others do so to unlock their hidden talents, overcome their shyness or increase their confidence and social skills. However, what all students enjoy is having fun through drama, singing and dance classes, while making lots of new friends.

Children ages 3-6 years attend a 90-minute session divided into three sections of dance, drama and singing. Students aged 7-18 years attend a three-hour session comprising of an hour of drama, an hour of singing and an hour of dance, each with a specialist tutor. To establish an environment that builds confidence, regardless of individual ability, students are divided into appropriate age bands. All students will be challenged to their full potential.

If you’ve not been involved in anything like the performing arts before, we offer a two-week trial to all new students, so come along and see for yourself! Fees for a whole term at Jigsaw are: 3-6 years £150 per term, 7-18 years £280 per term. Sibling discounts apply and you can pay online, over the telephone or via our direct debit scheme.

Jigsaw currently runs classes throughout London and the South east. Visit www.jigsaw-arts.co.uk to find your nearest school, or give us a call on 020 8447 4530. Jigsaw also offers holiday workshops, birthday parties, a Youth Theatre and runs an in-house agency.
